DAMON POV.

"Still sleeping," I texted, waiting for her reply. It was past noon and she was still sleeping.

"Just made a horrible lunch" she texted back, which sent me chuckling in front of Anna. "I wasn't at the office today as I had just woken up by myself.

She had complained to my uncle who didn't see it as anything, as long as an heir is produced was what he was after.

This made talking to Kiara easy at any time of the day. "So, how horrible, like rate it," I requested.

"A lot of bad, those numbers won't work," she texted back. "I thought it was easy, I watched Beatrice throw stuff," she complained in a text.

"You didn't help in the kitchen," I asked. "I did, in cutting stuff, I have good knife skills," she boasted in her text.

"Then eat your knife skills," I teased as she went quiet, sending only dots.

I couldn't get to see her next text because a maid came informing me of the king's summon.

On getting to his quarter, I saw him having a talk with someone. "Bryce, about time," he

    KIARA POV"I don't understand Damon, what do you mean he already found a mate," I asked, in utter shock.."One minute you tell me that everything is fine as long as he didn't find his mate and now you are telling me his mate has been found?" I mumbled, trying to fit it.Damon to my utter surprise had come earlier than he usually does and he was holding a lot of alcohol."Want to drink?" He offered. "No thank you, I don't drink," I replied. "Why?" He asked."I really didn't have a very strong alcohol tolerance and thus the only time I drink is on a mission, but that's not the case," I yelled."Kiara, trust me, I'm just as surprised as you are and I know it puts us in a dangerous position," he said. "I don't think you do," I slumped down. "And you are not reacting," I said."You think, I have screamed and scattered my home for this, I came really calm alright," he said."And I just need some alcohol to do that," He added. Going to the kitchen, I brought out a cup and sat down on the fl

When Maya got to her room, she found Eric, waiting behind the door. He already had her things packed up and was about to kiss her when she pulled away."Why are you doing this?" He asked, "you didn't answer my calls, you have been ignoring me, what did I do wrong," he questioned."Is there not something wrong with that question?" Maya asked."I don't understand babe," Eric mumbled, coming to kiss her. "Oh don't baby me," she yelled."I have a mate now and if the king approves, I will be with him as the crown princess," she snapped."But you said you love me, I left my mate for you," he mentioned."Your greed causes that not

    BYRCE/DAMON POV I went home and found Wyatt in my room. Upon entering, he gave me a warm smile, before coming to meet me."I'm sorry I let myself in," he apologies. "Yeah, you should not have," I muttered, locking the door. "I think we started on the wrong foot," he says."Did we?" I asked. "Because I honestly don't remember offending you and you offending me," I continue."Look, I know you are not happy that I am taking your Kingdom from you," he said. "I already talked with your father and it's alright, I don't have a problem, as long as you prove yourself worthy," I explained."So you seriously do not have an issue about it?" He asked, raising his eyebrows. "You at me, I don't even have a wolf anymore, if I let my greed take over me, then the country my father once took care of would perish and I wouldn't want that," I reasoned."Besides, your father was my father's brother and after his death, he proved himself worthy. The only thing I can help you do is the paperwork, I can hel

    KIARA POV "I'm Kiara, Maya's younger sister," I introduced, offering my hand to Wyatt who took it."Now I see the phrase is correct," he mumbled. "And that's it?" I asked, blinking my eyes innocently at him. "That's the younger ones are the pretty ones," he replied."If I had met you when I went to pick up Maya, I would have made you mine," he teased, laughing a bit. "I know you, you were supposed to get married to Byrce, but he rejected you in public," The king said, his eyes fixed on Damon."I'm sure he didn't see how beautiful she was, who would reject such a fine art," Wyatt questioned."Well I did," Damon accepted. "But why did you survive and how did you guys meet," The king asked.Maya seemed mad enough that she stormed off. The king called Damon to a corner and I was left with Wyatt who kept looking at me greedily."So you are with my cousin?"I asked. "Do you like him or do you just want a position in the royal family?" He questions."Why are you asking?" I questioned, look

    KIARA POV."Is Bryce around?" The king asked, in a fake worried tone. After the whole incident, Wyatt's abilities have been doubted by the council and the public.Especially those who had sympathy for Damon, since it wasn't his fault he lost his legs and couldn't rule and this led to the hate for Wyatt.He openly admits his plans to get rid of Damon in public, this was what Damon wanted so that once he starts uploading his video, the people will be able to connect the dots.Currently he wasn't in his room and I was given the task to make sure no one enters or disturb him and was to refuse the kings or Wyatt from entering the room."I'm trying to make him eat," I replied, my tone quite down. "Please tell him that I really need to see him, I need to explain to him about what happened yesterday," Onyx begged."I am his uncle and I took care of him after his parents died, I would never want to do anything like that to him and currently I'm punishing Wyatt for his choice of words and his

    "How dare you?" Onyx asked Maya, he looked furious, if not for his respect to ladies, he would have made sure she bleed but he waa trying to be gentle on her."Must you all make a mess?" He questioned, scolding both of them. "She started it,"Maya blamed. "Enough with your lies Maya, gosh I didn't know you lied this much, do you think I am your parents that accept your lies?" He questioned, which shocked Maya."I watched the video, Kiara was happy to see you and she smiled while you kept frowning and when she hugged you, you pushed her away, slapping her," he yelled."Do you know the mess you two have put me in right now, imagine the humiliation I had to face begging that useless nephew of mine," he questioned, trying to keep his voice down."Imagine him stating how scared he was because he didn't want to be discarded, for years I have been trying to hide this and you went off telling him in the worst possible way," he went on."Tell him,"Maya muttered. "And you too, the media saw you

    KIARA POV I didn't know what happened to me, one minute he was talking and I found his voice really sexy and appealing and I was drawn, drawn enough to kiss him.After a while I pulled away, my cheek red for what just happened. "Kiara," he called. "Hmm," I mumbled, looking away."What did you just do?" He asked. "Just an experiment, you don't need to interrogate me like that," I snapped. "I'm off to have my bath,"I announced. "It's still morning, you recently had my bath," he says as I mimic him."If you are so worried about water wastage then fine, I would go and sleep," I tell him, going to the bed and lying down.Till now, I didn't know why I kissed him and I fell asleep, thinking so hard for a reason. When I woke up, it was past dinner time, however Bryce already saved my share, which I ate while he was in the shower.I was surprised that he didn't push the matter too long and was rather calm about it. When he stepped out of the shower, he got us talking about other things and

    KIARA POV."Kiara, you are taking the attention of your sister," he stated."What?" I asked, shocked by his words. "I'm just saying Kiara, you shouldn't have existed and it was fine with you not being around," he explained."It's simple Kiara, just go back to wherever you came from and let Maya continue to shine," he went on."Are you kidding me?" I asked. "I am your daughter," I yelled. "No you are mistaken," he corrected.."A mistake, really," I said. "Yes, I was happy with my wife when my mate came along," he said. "If you were happy with her, you wouldn't have an affair, you wouldn't have promised her a future with her," I yelled."For heaven sake, why would I want to belong with a filthy omega, it was just due to the mating heat and it was just one time and you were born," he said."A man said anything for sex and I didn't mean anything I said to her, she wished to have disappeared, you should have done the same too," he went on."You have no right to say those words to me, I am

    KIARA POV.The whole scene flashed through my head and when I eventually woke up, I realized it was just a dream. I was awake in our room, with a different dress and fresh scent, no doubt he helped bath and dress me. I quickly rush out and inquire for his whereabouts. I was just about heading to the prison when he came out. His expressions quickly changed to that of a worried look even as he explained Maya's situation, he kept coming closer as if I would fall any minute from now.When I entered the room she was placed in, I was surprised to see her chained, even Damon was surprised as he told me she was sleeping when he left.Nevertheless, I still entered, squatting near her as I waited patiently for her to wake up and when I was too impatient to wait, I snapped my fingers in front of her, continuously until she was awake."You," she cursed underneath her breath. "Yes Maya, I'm standing in front of you, victorious in the end," I said."You may be victorious Kiara but then, I have l

    DAMON/BRYCE POV."Kiara, are you crying," I asked, after noticing her teary eyes. Does she feel pity for Maya? I couldn't tell because of how unpredictable Kiara can be.She quickly cleaned her eyes and then looked at me, frowning. "Is it your fault, my body went into shock seeing how you nearly died on me," she grumbled, folding her eyes and trying to get her act together, even though her body was clearly shaking.I smiled a bit, seeing that even though she couldn't help showing her feelings for me, I went to hug her. "I'm sorry my love," I apologize. "It was my mistake and carelessness, but get angry at me, I can't stand it, I won't be able to focus," I whispered as she pushed me away, "I'm not angry," she mumbled, hiding her face. "Let's go inside," she says, walking ahead but yet her step wasn't straight. Realizing she was slowly going unconscious, I rushed to her, catching her just in time as she shut her eyes."Is she alright?" They asked, all expressing concern about her. "

    KIARA POV"Give the order to attack," I instructed Damon. "But," he mumbled, the hesitation in his eyes and I firmly looked at him, telling him it was alright. "I'm trusting you," he muttered as I nodded, smiling a little. It was nice hearing that and I had to bit my lip from smiling more than that."Attack," He commanded and we rushed to reciprocate their actions, halfway I knew he noticed they were slowly down, not completely slow but enough for us to work with. This wasn't what we wanted, we wanted them to be completely slow, but they weren't, it still gave us a good opportunity to attack, getting rid of them before it began wearing off.The ones giving gear went flying while the rest stayed on the ground. I'm sure Damon had figured out that majority of our men fighting were the omegas. The rest were ask to look after the safety of our citizen.However, I noticed it didn't affect the young vampire king, I couldn't even tell if he was actually young, because of their anti-aging a

    DAMON/BRYCE POV. "That's a short timing, they are only giving us three days to prepare," I complained after reading the note out loud. "The omega team will arrive tonight, we will be giving you our best warriors," Alan said. "You are talking as if you have a plan," Kiara muttered, she just sat there, looking calm. "We used two days to strengthen them, the ones that would make great progress would be to play in the defending team, along with the omegas, the one that don't, we will settle them somewhere," He replied. "Do you think he killed Wyatt?" I questioned. "We don't know, who knows if Wyatt is engineering everything," she mumbled a reply."I'm worried about their speed," he announced. "They have to be like a gas that can help slow them down, even if it's up to five to ten minutes, it would give us an advantage," she said, standing up from her place and heading towards Alan."I remember when I joined, you all were working on something like that, what is the status," she questi

    KIARA POV"Are you sure about this information?" Damon asked. "Are you doubting me?" I asked back, teasing him a bit. The thing was the news was indeed shocking, I wasn't expecting it, neither would anyone here but it already happening. "Then what if they kill him, wouldn't it be easier for us," Alan asked. "The vampire are cunning creature, we have been at war and the only reason we haven't fought them is because none of have any leak information about our security strength they have mean, an opportunity to get it, do you think they would kill him off without tricking him at least to get it," I questioned."We don't know how long we have before they rage war and definitely we are short of well trained guards and definitely Wyatt will know their weak point, as well as their strong point. We might be needing a lot of our team to train and fight along with us," I analyze, looking at Alan for a response."An omega, isn't that an insult," a guard burst out, but when realizing he said it

    "Really," the new vampire king exclaimed, he had just been told of the current happenings in the Golden Mecha kingdom."Your majesty, are we going to attack," his officials asked. "No, not yet," he answered, leaning back on the throne."But then really soon," he assured. "If this said Wyatt hadn't escaped, we would have given them a surprise attack but this was different, their security system would be tight since they are still searching for him. "Increase the training, double the hours, tell my people that they shouldn't take it as stress, soon, we will have the werewolf under us," he announced as they all cheered. "Sir, a wolf has been spotted, trespassing," a guard had reported. "He claimed to be the son of the traitor that killed our late king," Another chipped in.."I say we kill him," the official suggested. "Cruelly, the way his father killed our late king," they demanded. "Enough," he yelled at them, with so much authorities, that they were left speechless and they had no

    DAMON/BRYCE POV."Bryce," Onyx called my name, shocked that I was standing in front of me. "Why are you doing this to me, I took care of you," he stated as I glared at him."You took care of me, you poisoned me, you killed my father, you killed my own mother because she didn't give in to you and you said you took care of me?" I questioned. "You think I don't know of your plans to dispose of me, just watch how I make you pay for every crime you ever committed," I told him."You will need to prove it first, or I might kill you through treason," he threatened as I smirked. Kiara looked pleased as she let me handle it, while regulating the security."Do you think I don't have proof against you?" I questioned, taking a look at Kiara, she got the message, releasing the next video through the official website and making sure everyone got the notification.People shifted their attention from me to their phone and the video started playing. Onyx was curious, getting his phone and watching it h

    DAMON/BRYCE POV.Currently, Kiara plans have been executed and the first half has started. The only surprising thing was that Onyx had come to us with blood on his shirt. I wondered who he had killed or what must have happened, funny enough he didn't want to hide it, he showed it boldly as he entered, not panicking.No one dared to ask him and I wasn't left out either. "Kiara, you are back and I heard you brought good news," Onyx said.."How?" He questioned and I watched Kiara explain herself. Her lies were simple, straight and so convincing that if she had not explained it to me, I would have been fooled too. FLASHBACK"Damon," her soft voice called. "We have to move everyone away. Currently, Alan is preparing a new hideout, we would need to move everything that could point back to us," she explained as her words confused me. "The first part of the plan is to get the royal soldiers to raid this place, the commotion would make the palace security lessened and we can sneak them in,"

    MEANWHILE.Onyx had returned to the dungeon, giving Roman time to think about it as Roman had asked. He had secretly been hoping that Roman would tell him, he knows it can't be Kiara, he wouldn't trust her so much to give her such a secret, so who was it? If Maya was still on Roman side then he would have been able to get it from her but things were different, he would need to get his answer directly. Roman laughed, he couldn't believe he felt Onyx pride. "I'm not going to tell you," he says, firmly. "I told you once, that if you drag me down, I won't go down alone," he went on. "You think I don't know what you intend to do?" Roman asked. "You will release me, yes I know but you will kill me. I want my life spared. So it's simple, I want to show you that I can totally bring you down," he boasted."What about you, don't you think her confession would affect yours?" Onyx asked. "It won't, because I had made sure she only make you the culprit, in her statement, she would be praising
